About the Item

This rare and large version of the Gino Sarfatti Model 540 G (G=grande), produced by Arteluce Italy in 1968, is a remarkable lighting fixture that showcases the innovative design sensibilities of its creator. This lamp features a vertically rotating sphere-shaped reflector, crafted from white lacquered aluminum, which allows for adjustable light distribution and precise illumination control. The reflector's spherical shape not only adds a touch of visual intrigue but also ensures optimal light diffusion. The lamp's structure is made from clear methacrylate, a durable and transparent material that complements the reflector's design while providing stability and support. The combination of the sphere and structure creates a captivating interplay of light and shadow, enhancing the overall ambiance of the space. Gino Sarfatti, a renowned Italian lighting designer, was known for his ability to merge technical innovation with aesthetic appeal, and the Model 540G shows that combination. The lamp's rotating functionality allows users to adjust the direction and intensity of the light, making it suitable for various lighting needs and moods. Literature: Gino Sarfatti Opere Scelte 1938-1973 - Marco Romanelli Sandra Severi 2012, page 428. Priced and sold individually. Lamps use an E27 bulb up to 100 watt each. This lamp is checked in our own atelier, cleaned and is suitable for use in the USA. For US usage we could change the plug, or you can get a converter if needed for a floor or table lamp with transformer in it. Feel free to inquire for options.
